Modern Forms FH-W1811-54-GH/WG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Modern Forms Aviator FH-W1811 be installed on a covered patio or porch?
Yes. The Aviator FH-W1811 carries a Wet location rating and is UL, cUL, CSA, ETL and cETL listed, so it can go in covered outdoor areas as well as indoor rooms. The blades are ABS rather than wood-veneer, which is what makes the outdoor use possible.
2) Does the Aviator FH-W1811 come with a light, or do I have to buy it separately?
It ships without a light. The optional integrated LED luminaire, part # F-1811-LED, is sold separately and powered by WAC Lighting with continuous dimming. A cover comes in the box to close off the light opening if you run the fan with no luminaire. If a job needs light-on-day-one, order the LED module with the fan.
3) What controls come with the Modern Forms Aviator, and do I need to run wire for a wall switch?
A battery-operated Bluetooth remote with a wall cradle (Part No. F-RCBT-WT) is included, so no additional control wiring is needed beyond the fan feed. A hardwired wall control is not included. The fan also runs from the free Modern Forms app and works with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Samsung SmartThings, Control4 and Josh AI.
4) How much room do I need around a Modern Forms Aviator 54 inch fan?
The Aviator spans 54 inches across the blade tips, with each of the 3 blades measuring 23.5 inches. Plan the layout so the tips clear walls, beams, cabinet fronts and door swings, and center it in the space for even airflow at 6321 CFM.
5) What is the electrical load of the Aviator FH-W1811 for circuit planning?
120V, 27W total. That is a very light load, so a multi-fan install on one 15A branch circuit is straightforward from a wattage standpoint. The DC motor is what keeps consumption down, and the fan is Energy Star rated.
6) Can this fan be run in reverse for winter heat circulation?
Yes. The Aviator uses a reversible DC motor with 6 speeds plus an adaptive breeze mode, so you can pull air up in winter to push warm ceiling air back down and run it forward in summer. Direction and speed are set from the remote or the app.
7) What finishes does the Modern Forms Aviator FH-W1811 come in, and what do I specify when ordering?
Three finish combinations: Graphite with Weathered Gray blades, Matte Black, and Matte Black with Distressed Koa blades. Two model callouts are offered, FH-W1811-54 and FH-W1811-5-54, and each finish is available under both. Specify the finish and the model callout together so the right configuration ships.
8) Is the Modern Forms Aviator FH-W1811 ADA compliant?
No. The Aviator FH-W1811 is not ADA compliant. If a project requires ADA-compliant hardware in that space, specify accordingly; the fan itself carries UL, cUL, CSA, ETL and cETL listings and a Wet location rating.
9) Is the Aviator quiet enough for a bedroom?
The Aviator uses a DC motor that Modern Forms factory-balances and sound tests so it does not wobble, rattle or click, and the 3 blades run at a 13 degree pitch for quiet air movement. Six speeds let you dial it down to a low setting overnight instead of living with a noisy bottom speed.
10) Can I control several Aviator fans together across a building?
Yes. The free Modern Forms app supports grouping along with speed, breeze mode and adaptive learning, and the fan integrates with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Samsung SmartThings, Control4 and Josh AI. It can also be driven from an Android or iOS wall-mounted Wi-Fi tablet, which is a common approach in amenity spaces and multi-family common areas.
